Frozen maple syrup doesn’t actually solidify, it just gets real thick, so you can almost take the jug from freezer to pancakes without thawing. Freeze your maple syrup right in the jug or pour it into glass jars or tupperware-type containers. Frozen maple syrup will keep indefinitely.
Maple Syrup Grades
Grade A fancy is the lightest of all grades and is usually made during the early part of the sugaring season. It has a more delicate maple flavor than the darker grades so it works better as a pancake topping than it does for baking.
Storing Maple Syrup
Unlike artificial syrup, pure maple syrup should be refrigerated. Although many sources say you don’t need to refrigerate it, pure maple syrup can develop mold at room temperature, so it really is important to keep it cold. You can also freeze or can maple syrup to save space in the fridge.

Freezing maple syrup is the best way to preserve its mapl-y flavor.
Canning Maple Syrup
To can it, heat the syrup
to 180° and fill hot sterilized jars, leaving no air space and seal. This method is especially helpful if large containers of maple syrup are not used immediately after opening. If a sugary crust forms on the surface of maple syrup, heat the syrup to dissolve the sugar, and thus remove the crust.
